I bet your job isn't as fun as selkirks!

Most bad stories seem to start out with "I was starting to climb in colorado" and end up with being lowered while unconscious

not quite as good as a gentle touch, but I will take what I can get

My pet peeve is pirate graemlin software

thank god i'm a huffer

I can't help that I like you--you are a fellow dork. Carrion.

How sweet. Fuck you.

Forgive me, I'm old

Just remember what the bumper sticker said... "No matter how hot she looks, there's some guy out there who's damn fucking tired of her shit." Bullshit. She looks like the type of chick who can afford to dump a dude. More like "No matter how hot she looks, you don't have a fucking chance".

That you pick losers to date? I can relate to that. Huh. We have something in common. Who woulda thunk. And I *meant* it shows what I do to a guy who messes with me. I meant I seem to date guys who like to have me around for amusement purposes. But I think I should reiterate (before we climb together) that I have never dropped anyone I had on the end of the rope. Ever.

Are you feeling a bit randy?

(206) 625-5011 and if that doesn't work: Child Protective Services - Child Abuse Hot Line - 1-800-342-3720 ...

I think they tried that and it didn't work. Oh wait, that's Mexico never mind

It's ok. I am more of a mental cripple at this point in my life.

I'll be there Friday afternoon I'll be at Base Camp Friday night--we can hook up for a climb for Sat

It is just awful that an entire family can be torn apart by something as simple as a pack of wild dogs. Thank goodness those hikers were able to survive on their found booty. I wonder if this happens very often? Is there any type of cool "NW Accidents Narrowly Avoided" type book?

YOu are right, cripples shouldn't have access. As a person who once had to spend a bit of time in a chair, I am assuming you are being facetious.

That is smart. I've had a partner do that to me w/o warning just to test me. Surprised me, but it was clever. Haven't dropped anyone yet. But the summer is just starting!

BLOG-spotter?

That you pick losers to date? I can relate to that.

Sorry to hear about your fall. I had an early negative experience climbing with someone I didn't know. I only climb outside, and so I was pretty nervous and felt trapped (I'd gotten up a couple pitches and the only way down was up). I had never climbed with someone I didn't know before that day, and since that day I don't climb with anyone I don't know unless I am leading something that I know I can do without falling (barring the unexpected). And I don't let anyone lower me---I rap or walk off no matter how foolish it seems to the other person. The downside: I have very few climbing partners. The upside: I haven't been dropped and I feel like I have some measure of control over my safety. The trade off is worth it for me; but then, I can be a nervous nelly sometimes.

Marie did the same thing once and she survived.

I agree with the look but don't touch park visitors. One thing I liked about Denali was that you got to register for a unit and while in that unit, you didn't see any other people (except maybe the party on their way out). I realize that this cannot be done in a smaller park, but I think the enjoyment of going through a national park without seeing too many other folks cannot be understated.

hell yes I mean cheesy poof

Maybe one of the college cuties you slobber on can help you solve this mystery. They're too busy driving automatics.
